I think it's time that we Conservatives started to remind people how bad it can get under Labour.
I spent my weekend doing exactly what I did last weekend: finding out how hard the looming recession was hitting business in my constituency.

A company providing equipment to the leisure industry told me they had announced the day before that the advertising budget was being withdrawn and to expect redundancies. “The phone just isn’t ringing”, said my constituent, “no orders coming in – we are drying up”.

As Conservatives prepare to work the country back up out of the mess Labour has once again dropped us into, we need to remind people every single day of the inevitability of a sustained period of Labour government: tax, tax, tax, spend, spend,spend, recession.
